I would like to offer an apology to those who have felt the global military presence of the United States since 1945. Whether it was to "protect American interests", "bring democracy" or just to intimidate others into a system of waste and greed. I'm sure YOU know who you are, but for those who don't..........

I apologize to any countries, other than these 57, that have dealt with our soldiers. This list continues to grow, apparently, without the knowledge of the U.S. public, who seem to ignore the terror that our government's military historically and presently implement. Perhaps it is the constant onslaught of violence and abuse of governmental power here in our own country that is meant to stray our attention from your plight.
This abuse of human rights binds us together. I still see people behind flags, not terrorists. I still see families beyond borders, not a never ending war. I still see the good in myself and others.
